After singing another few songs, Skye was dripping with sweat. Removing her Santa hat, she twirled it before throwing it into the crowd. Then bending down, she fluffed out her hair and shook a few hands waving just before the stage. Looking out, she tried to find Sparky, but he must have been lost in the crowd. She hoped the man had come to see them play, but they were only begun in the beginning phases of their relationship. Had they labeled it? She couldn't remember between the nights she'd spent at his apartment. Biting her lip, the girl backed away and picked up her guitar.
Matt saw Jeff approach and sighed heavily. The night was busy enough without the new daddy issues he was facing. He noticed how torn up the man was and shook his head "The hell happened to you?" he asked, waving him through "You're the only exception to Remy's rule. No humans. Go on in..." he huffed before stopping a few clearly underaged kids "Chuck E Cheeze is uptown where you belong. Merry Fucking Christmas."
As Jeff would have entered the bar, Hope could be seen not far into the club. She stood in back drinking a martini as she quietly watched the band play. She was within earshot of Rhona just in case of creepers hitting on her. She was in the middle of sulking into her beverage with the man entered the club, though, she had no idea...
Freddy yelled as loud as he could for his girlfriend. He was so damn proud of her. Grabbing another round of drinks for their table, he carefully set the tray down and let his people ravage.

Jeff looked at Matt and just paid his cover. He wasn’t in the mood to explain what had happened to him or what he had been doing tonight. He would comment on Remy though and his rules but tonight he wouldn’t do that. He was in a bit of a mood having to had to teach someone a lesson in manners. “Small disagreement with Heat Miser and Cold Miser. They got the point that hanging with the Grinch and planning ways to ruin Christmas doesn’t work out.” He walked in and to the side to let his eyes adjust to the lighting in the bar. He didn’t expect trouble but one never knew where it might come from. After his eyes adjusted he spotted the person who had invited him. He smiled as he made his way over. He was deftly weaving his way toward her and slipped up next to her. “Can I buy you drink or is there a guy or gal already doing that?” Hope was a bright spot that he hadn’t anticipated. He wasn’t complaining but he had to wonder how long and how much he could dodge what he actually did for a living. ~*~ Relina snagged a drink really quick and looked over at Skye and decided it was time to shred this tree. She smiled as she quickly tuned it and now it was ready. The low din of conversation was sudden interrupted. youtu.be/HB8WHA3WWz0The opened of You Really Got Me was what had cut them. That followed by the rest of band picking up and Skye started singing. This was why she loved playing. You got to play some great stuff that wowed the crowd. ~*~ The kiss was a nice thing Logan decided as he had never really been the type to date. Yes he had relationships but those were as hard to remember as other parts of his life. He liked it though and her compliments and her gratitude weren’t strange. He just didn’t say much. “You’re welcome. It just a spot I find takes my mind off things.” They drove through the hills and down toward the city. As they did those pinpoints of light grew larger and the snow started to pick up. He was glad he had been driving his truck he worked on. “Ice skating in plaza is going to fun. I haven’t done it in a while but a few falls won’t stop me. I think the place we need to go is a choice of a nice place, a diner, or a combination of the two.” He hoped she didn’t choose a diner. They’d have to drive to Jersey for a good one. ~*~ Aaron has suitable calmed after his brother’s departure and his shower. He watched as she put her boots back on and smiled at her acceptance. He stopped at the question. That was odd. He appreciated things like that. “I’ve always liked and appreciated art. It doesn’t hurt when one happens to be around an artist as well.” He took her hand as she stood to assist her. He smiled at her and led her to his car. It was the Mazda RX7 that was his pride and joy. He opened the door for her and once she was seated he got in and fired it up. He took off out of their lot, which looked like a car lot. “Cars can be art. You forget when people talk and spend time together they find that perhaps their interests aren’t so different. I wanted our first date to be something we’d both enjoy and I believe this is the place. It took me several weeks to find this place. Then several more reading up on artists.” He smiled as he turned a corner and accelerated.

Pyro watched as Skye sang and he smiled. He nodded to Jeff but as usual kept pretty much to himself. Besides he just liked watching Skye sing. She looked adorable in her santa hat, though he would never tell her that. And everyone looked so happy talking and joking around with each other. It was a nice change, though he had to admit it felt like the calm before the storm. He waited for Skye to finish so perhaps the next band to come up...perhaps they could dance together.

Gabriella snuck into the ace of trades as she knew Skye was going to perform....and perhaps if he noticed she was there she would dance with Matt. She liked dancing. And she liked to listen to music. She asked for some soda from the bartender as she watched the performance and danced in place. She was going to have fun. It was a celebration after all

Rouge smiled warmly at Gambit and blushed when he complimented her. He always had a way of making her feel...giddy inside. Of course I came...I wouldn't miss this for the world" She wanted to kiss him but she knew what would happen if she did. She smiled and said "I'll have a rum and coke love" She said as she sat down near Gambit "I like your live band nights." She smiled. She didn't exactly agree with the fight nights and she never came for those. He didn't seem to do those that often thank goodness. He did live bands more...especially with Skye's band. They were pretty good so she liked to come spend time with Gambit...dancing was the closest they could get at the moment so she treasured these times. SHe finished her rum and coke and held out her gloved hand "If you aren't too busy..." she motioned her head towards the dance floor.

Iridessa came just in time. She would have come earlier but she had her own personal celebration before this and her private getaway was farther than she would have liked it be for this gig. She had to concentrate to keep her glimmer up, though it had gotten easier to do through all the years. Even among mutants she dared not show herself yet. After all she wasn't a mutant...she was something else. She was a fairy. She had found through her own adventure that there were others just like her. She wasn't a mutant and she wasn't alone. She kept in touch with the fairies as she was trying to change the future. She felt something coming. Many had died...including a man she had grown to love. It was something she had been slowly coming to terms with. Right now she got her keyboard ready to set up along with her microphone. She had a good gig lined up for the night.

Skye shook her head at Relina as she began to shred. With a bright big smile, she began singing the song to accompany the killer sound.
“Girl, you really got me goin’...”
She gave a metal spin to it with a voice similar to Lzzy Hale. She continued to sing alongside Relina, smiling the entire time. This was where it was at for her. This was where she got the most joy. This was her happy place...
————————
It was finally break time for Matt. Hopping down from his stool, he located Gabs, planting a kiss on the girl’s cheek “Hey gorgeous!” He hoped he didn’t mind the gesture “Enjoying the music?” He asked before ordering a soda, since he was working “Save me a dance, okay?” He asked sweetly over the music “You look beautiful, tonight..”
—————————
Hope knew that voice; it was low, rustic and impeccably sexy. Closing her eyes in annoyance at his lateness, she turned around “Not anyone that I’ve accepted.” Had he forgotten her trust issues? Jeff was an odd man at times and he was quickly twisting his way into her heart.
Looking at the man suddenly, her face paled “What the heck is wrong with you? What happened?!” She asked before grabbing his hand “Bathroom, NOW!” She exclaimed as she spilled her drink onto her red dress “Shit...” she sighed heavily “Jeff, start talking.”
—————————-
Once the song was finished and Iri had begun to set up, Skye made one last announcement before heading off stage. Looking to Relina, she nodded in acceptance. They were one hell of an act and they were finally complete.

Gabriella smiled when Matt kissed her on the cheek. "Hey! And yes I am enjoying the music a lot. I love coming here for the live music." SHe smiled warmly back at Matt. SHe blushed a little hoping he wouldn't notice when he said she looked beautiful. It was infuriating sometimes how he got to her. He was always flirting with all the girls so in that way she tried to keep her distance from him in that way but she sometimes felt...well jealous. She smiled and nodded "It would be a pleasure to have a dance...whenever you are ready.

Dee smiled as she shrugged. It felt like a life time ago when she escaped the burning building. She had a new family full of furry friends and the man who took her in. She had a purpose again.
"Don't be sad. I mean if they were still alive, who knows if we would have met. My furry friends are like family. And no, I don't mean people who dress up in animal costumes cause they think they are part this or that. Human Furries are gross."
Her face reflected how she was feeling. She smiled as she turned the subject to something more fun. She smiled at the offer of another home. She had the best tree house in the world which she would not give up on. To her, she was living that dream.
"Walnut I make you a deal? The offer is sweet but I have a house already. We can easily visit one another and have sleep overs. Wouldn't that be the greatest? I have never had a sleep over in my life. My parents didn't want anyone to find out that I was part squirrel." ~*~*~
Angie kept silent as Logan brushed her comments to the side. It was something which she had grown to expect. He was a practical man with rough edges. She found that she enjoyed that. She picked at the skin around her thumb to hide the slight disappointment when her affection was not returned. The night was still young.
Her blue eyes drifted back over to him when he spoke about the plan. She chuckled at the idea of him falling down a few times. They were both sure to have a few bruises in the morning from the ice. She took in a deep breath as she debated about food.
"We will both fall for a bit until we get our footing on skates. I may have been born in the land of ice and snow yet I have soften in the warmth of the rain. It does depend on you definition of a nice place. I am not sure I am dressed for such an occasion. Though a combination might suit us well." ~*~*~*
An odd heat rose on Wanda's face when Aaron mentioned art and being around an artist. It was nice that he appreciated what she painted. After all, she worked hard on perfecting various techniques. The heat burned brighter the moment he took her hand as well. Butterflies fluttered in her stomach as she followed him to the car. He was being a true gentleman as she hopped in.
She braced herself slightly as the gas pedal was hit. She had gotten rather used to his fast driving. She settled back as she watched the road with him. She rolled her eyes at him as the comment that people talk to find common interests. It was not the first time she has been down this road with someone.
"Well you and I have done a lot of talking as of late. I tend not to ask too many questions with the different cars you bring. I dare say, this one might be my favorite. It really suits you."
She paused when she realized he said the word date. She never actually considered that. She chewed the inside of her lip before she responded. "I am impressed with the research. So who is the artist this month?" She would skip over the date thing, for now. They would spend time with one another like always, just more forced this time. ~*~*~
Remmy smiled as he got the reaction he wanted out of her. She was one of the few people that he would risk everything for, including knowing that her powers could kill him. It would be a sweet death. Not that he was planning on dying anytime in the near future. He easily fixed the drink exactly how she liked it. He slid the glass over to her.
"Yours are on the house tonight, sweetheart." He gave her a little wink. "Why do you think I have live band nights so often? It keeps a beautiful face such as yours around as often as I like. Plus, just another excuse to spend time with you."
He laughed as he poured her another rum and coke. He kept it behind the counter as he grabbed her gloved hand. The others would survive five minutes with out his help. "I think that I can squeeze you in." He walked around as he pulled her close. He was careful to avoid skin to skin contact. Maybe there would be a day in which their relationship would be brought to the next level.

Charis smiled at her new best friend when she was told not to be sad and that they could have sleepovers at each others places. "Ooh that sounds like lots of fun and we could go nuts and do whatever we wanted...I can't wait Dee..." Charis then scooted over closer to her new Bestie and took another drink..."I'm starting to like you more and more and more....We should go somewhere together after this... I just need to call Ember and tell her I'll be home later."
She took another drink of her beer while looking around mostly at the door and Dee.

Rouge couldn't help but smile when Remy slid her the drink "You know you don't need this excuse to spend time with me Cajan...but I like your thought" She chuckled a little in spite of herself. It was nice to feel this connection even if it couldn't be as physical as either of them would like. She nodded when he said it was on the house. As she usually didn't drink a whole lot if he was there it usually was. It was nice to have a drink or two though on these nights. She took his hand and they went to the floor and danced. It was nice being able to at least put her head on his shoulder. Despite it being worth everything she would never want to hurt him. She hoped she could be in control of her powers one day. Hopefully they would fine a way.
Until then it was times like these when they were able to dance together that gave her even the smallest glimpses of happiness until then. She danced in time with the music with Remy...and for a little while it could make her forget the sadness and gave her the hope that she needed to make it through all of this

Skye stepped into the crowd, shaking hands while walking towards Pyro. She age a bright big smile before wrapping her arms around him, whispering into his ear “How ya doing, Sparky?” She chuckled and before slowly backing away “Can I get you a drink? The band drinks for free tonight.” She winked before kissing him on the cheek.
Looking back to the stage, she waved to Iri and have her devil horns with her fingers. —————————————
Matt wrapped his arms around Gabs, lifting her up gently “C’mon, pretty lady. I’ll show you a good time.” He snickered before carefully taking her hand, clearly announcing to those giving him googly eyes that he was taken for the night. “Slow song...excellent.” He grinned mischievously. Turning around, he gently combed Gabriella’s blond locks between his fingers, feeling it’s softness.

Iridessa looked to Skye and smiled when she was getting ready to have her turn after she came down. Only she and a few others could see through her mirage. It would start slow as she sang one of her favorite songs watching the couples dance. It was a song she knew all too well in her heart. Her sweet voice echoed as she sang the Billy Joel balad
"I can always find someone
To say they sympathize
If I wear my heart out on my sleeve
But I don't want some pretty face
To tell me pretty lies
All I want is someone to believe
Honesty is such a lonely word
Everyone is so untrue
Honesty is hardly ever heard
And mostly what I need from you
I can find a lover
I can find a friend
I can have security until the bitter end
Anyone can comfort me
With promises again
I know, I know, I know..."
She smiled back at the audience while she sang glad to see all the dancing. It might be a slow song...but sometimes the mood was just right
"When I'm deep inside of me
Don't be too concerned
I won't ask for nothin' while I'm gone
But when I want sincerity
Tell me where else can I turn
'Cause you're the one I depend upon"

Gabriella was smiling as they went out to the dance floor. She saw all the rest of the woman's eyes but it made her somewhat glad that it was her Matt was spending time with, knowing that she was probably not supposed to be here. The slow song was nice...and the words though she didn't recognize the song...she found it beautiful and she understood the feelings in the song. The woman singing though she didn't know her personally came here a lot. She had a pleasant voice and she always played songs that she didn't know but ended up liking. She might ask her where she found such music. She put her head on Matt's shoulder as she put an arm around him as they danced

Pyro smiled and put his arm around her bringing her closer "Better now. You did wonderful up there. Then again you always do." He said as he took her hand and kissed her back. For once he was ha I'll take a fireball love" He said giving her a moment to get her own drink as well. He watched as Iridessa set up and started singing. She was good as well and it was nice when he got a chance to dance with Skye. He held out his hand "Whenever you are ready love" He grinned
